Communicative tasks1. Very good! Now, it is time for you to participate in a forum.

People from different cultures of the world introduce themselves in different ways. Look up information about it on the web. Then, talk to your instructor and arrange an appointment to participate in the forum. Your instructor needs to tell you the day, the time and the interaction tool you can use to show your presentation. You can use a dictionary if you need to. Don ́ t forget to download the forum checklist. There, you find guidance to develop the activity and some parameters to base your presentation on.
